Also you may be interested , sorry if you already saw it .. Comments from the top people in music .. like John McLaughlin , Chick corea , Al DiMeola . Santana etc....... The whole world of music ,,,,not just flamenco but everyone who can actually play well...is turned upsidedown .....now he is an undying legend and level of flamenco that is unobtainable .... Difficult act to follow for everyone.. So pleased , in a way , that I got to see him in a small roman ampitheater in Cordoba a long time ago .. Anyway here......
De Lucia left behind a finished, yet unreleased album. His 30th production is titled "Canciones Andaluzas" (Andalusian Songs). According to El Pais, it was scheduled to come out in Spain in April.
eso es muy bueno Juan, también sería bueno si tocaba la Taranta por completo... yo sé que se puede hacerlo especial ... me gusta , realmente me gusta...
There is such a symbolic value to these photographs of Vicente Amigo carrying the remains of Paco De Lucia. I suppose that is how we can honor anyone's death, by carrying forward the values and inspiration they bequeath.
As Mark74 wrote earlier in this thread Grisha's entire career "honored" Paco de Lucia, and I am certain he, along with many of his 'disciples', will continue to carry forward PDF's values and inspiration, Paco De Lucia's music.
Por Tarantas by Paco... Thank you so much for giving me that inspiration to continue playing and changing my outlook on life.
thank you juan, that was beautiful and perfect ! honestly this is the first time I ever see you playing hot, with feeling !! keep it up like that, thats what i was talking about before !
Thanks kudo.. I know what you mean.. I gathered some old and fairly recent videos and decided to pay a small homage to the Maestro. The second video is a falseta by his brother. Cannot leave him out. I hope you enjoy it.
